April 10,2009
Two HCI student design teams were invited to participate in the CHI Conference in Boston. The team led by Catherine Peloquin and Michael VanWaardhuizen earned third place in the Student Design Competition on Thursday, April 9. They presented a project called Crop Connect: Enabling Community Supported Agriculture. They were one of four teams to advance to the finals, along with teams from Michigan and Indiana.
The team of Ross Bohner, Adam Faeth, and Eric Marsh presented a poster called Edible Earth.
This year the student design competition at CHI focused on designing an object, interface, system or service intended to support the idea of utilizing or consuming local resources rather than global resources, in a sustainable and environmentally efficient manner. The conference was held in Boston.
